Omg. Pete didn’t mince words destroying Trump this morning.
“Trump just gave a press conference where he told 160 lies. That frankly is impressive in terms of being able to physically do that. It's like the Olympics of lying.”

HAHAHA! This new ad on Donald Trump’s mental ability from George Conway’s PAC is fantastic. Trump is completely unwell and it’s a shame that Republicans don’t want to talk about it!

Well first and foremost I notice that you're a liar @darrengrimes because that photo was taken in 2018

Everyone knows Labour are going to win the election, but if you’re feeling like there’s no point in voting as the outcome is a foregone conclusion, I’d like to draw your attention to something really radical that is on offer tomorrow: 1/8

Dear 🇬🇧,
@Nigel_Farage wants you to forget the fact that 10 years ago your NHS was ranked the #1 healthcare system in the world. The best on the planet. France was #9. You don’t need a new system. You need to stop listening to conmen, and reinvest in the NHS.

ALT A chart from the Commonwealth Fund 2014 "Mirror Mirror" report ranking healthcare systems among wealthy nations. The UK ranked 1 in nearly every category, including overall ranking. It delivered the best care for the least amount of money, beating every other wealthy nation. We don't need a new healthcare system. We need a new government that will care about it.

Jenrick told @josiahmortimer that donation was registered in 'error'
But that firm he says gave him the cash has £5million net liabilities 🧐

Liz Truss's 'why me?' reaction to the Queen's death is quite the thing, but what she then goes on to reveal is equally eyebrow raising.

Delighted to present a selection of hi altitude Monastrells from Spain's Levante to UK trade. Wines showed fascinating variations in style though all were powerful, albeit fresh and balanced; v drinkable, maybe even crowd-pleasing but never facile. ¡Viva #monastrellespaña !

I've cleaned up the audio on this erudite and statesman-like speech from #Gullis today.
